TURRON DE VINO

El turron de vino es uno de mis postres favoritos. Era muy comun que mi abuelita Chela lo hiciera para fechas especiales o los Domingos en que normalmente ibamos a almorzar.
Hace mucho que no lo hacía.

Lo hice para empezar a poner recetas para este tiempo del 18 por lo menos algunas. En todos estos años he hecho tantas que 
me cuesta encontrar recetas distintas.

He hecho empanadas-sopaipillas- alfajores- empolvados- chupes de mariscos-pastel de choclo cazuela- caldillos de pescado tortas mil hojas- chilenitos-lanchitas en fin.
Pero siempre se encuentra algo distinto.

Esta receta es de Platos y Copas de un número especial de cocina chilena.
Con esta receta participo en el Blog de recetas chilenas.
